It’s Always Summer Somewhere
Drew James © 2005
 
Train whistles, piano music, burning leaves
Make me turn and look back up this one way street
You know I never kept
All those notes you left
But underneath the bed
I found one that said
It’s always summer somewhere
It’s always summer somewhere
 
I guess the truth just wasn’t very plain to see
We blurred the line between our love and perjury
I thought I knew you best
So I put it to the test
And forced you to confess
In a note that read
It’s always summer somewhere
It’s always summer somewhere
 
June romance blew hot just like the Santa Ana wind
July took us to places that we had never been
In August you promised me our love would never end
Then September drained these words out from your pen
 
It’s always summer somewhere
It’s always summer somewhere
 
This winter night has chilled me way down to my bones
This note you left behind drilled way down to my soul
It was tearing me apart
Until I had a change of heart
And found it held the secret
To my brand new start
It’s always summer somewhere
It’s always summer somewhere
 
Gone now are the reasons that I had left to stay
Gone just like the seasons in a world of constant change
I’m picking up your final note and I’m throwing it away
As I walk out the door I too will say
 
It’s always summer somewhere
It’s always summer somewhere
It’s always summer somewhere
